HUGE correction to make....the evf will be the visoflex 020. My apologies.

 

There may be a new one coming that will work with the M10 but I am not sure if this information is 100% correct.

 

Possible revision of the Visoflex, related to the EVF of mythical, future QL beast?

From the article  : " ISO12500 looks smoother than ISO3200 on Leica SL... "  and " a notorious “discreet shutter mode” and a 1/8000 shutter speed "

 

If it is true then I'm impressed  :) 

 

"There are a few things that M10 does not have, and I am not missing them a tiny bit: video recording, USB connection, a notorious “discreet shutter mode” and a 1/8000 shutter speed."

He says that the M10 does NOT have discreet shutter mode or 1/8000s.

 

I see it also still has LENR :(

Looks pretty terrific to me, especially what I thought I heard Andreas say -- 33mm wide. That's significant. But I'm off the upgrade caravan for now.

Actually according to the technical data PDF: "(width x depth x height) approx. 139 x 38.5 x 80mm".

Far cry from 33mm!

I wondered if the M10 can compete with my "old" A7s mod. I know now... At least, the M10 has 24 MP vs 12 for the former...

M10 typ 3656 -- so, we're using both M# and typ designations now? Whee!

 

Order number 20000 -- that's an interesting statement to collectors and aficionados.

 

Framelines tailored to 2m focus distance -- I applaud this.

 

Different battery than M 240 -- I frown on this.

 

Only a few minutes until the hands-on reviews are released from embargo...

 

Cheers,

Jon

Something is definitely wrong on this forum. Last time I remember there was a new M announced, there was a total meltdown, hopelessness, high emotions and a lot of bickering. What's going on today? Things seem suspiciously calm :D

Perhaps because the M10 is ultimately just a slightly better M240, all of those feelings have already been spent?

The 33.5mm is the body depth not including the thumbwheel. 

 

This misunderstanding of Leica dimensions is almost folklore by now.

Reading the manual, in LV or EVF mode the magnified area can be moved around.  It's not fixed at the central area.  They do reference shutter release lag / delay, so I'm guessing that has not improved over the M-240.  Mixed feelings here.  A step forward, but the 2.36 MP EVF is disappointing.  A future 4.41 MP EVF sounds great, but that's hopes and wishes.  With the general trend of EVF being built-into cameras now, that means Leica would likely have to carry all the R&D and production cost for external 4.41 MP EVF.  I don't know if Leica would invest that kind of money.  Payback / break even might not be realistic.  Just guessing of course.
